Take Back Your Life Bible Study Guide: A 40-Day Interactive Journey to Thinking Right So You Can Live Right
by Levi LuskoThis forty-day interactive journey challenges you to come face to face with the real you, identify the internal battles you must declare war on, and become the difference-maker God created you to be. Every person has a mission and a God-given potential to impact the world, whether they recognize it or not. But the stuff of life—the loss of a job, the death of a friend or a loved one, the inability to focus due to bad moods or self-sabotaging tendencies—presents challenges and traps us in a helpless, hopeless loop of anxiety and fear. In the Take Back Your Life study (DVD/video streaming sold separately), Levi Lusko gives us forty daily challenges to come to terms with the reality of the battle and take up the weapons God has given us to engage in the fight. When we fail to recognize the reality of our situation, take back your life and fix your eyes on God. When the enemy is seeking to defeat and demoralize us, take back your life by responding to the Holy Spirit's power. When you have to decide whether to play it safe or cross the barbed wire, take back your life by tearing down strongholds. When you have to face your fears, take back your life by stepping out of your comfort zone and following God's call. When you find yourself in the wilderness, take back your life by embracing the struggle and making time with God a priority. This is a journey to get back the life you know you were born for. To change your thinking so you can change your living. To become the difference-maker God sees when he sees you. It&’s your choice. Sessions include: Look in the Mirror Turn Off the Dark Cross the Barbed Wire Run Toward the Roar Embrace the Struggle Designed for use with the Take Back Your Life Video Study available on DVD or streaming video, sold separately.

Jesus for President: Politics for Ordinary Radicals
by Shane Claiborne Chris HawDo the church and politics ever go together? Jesus for President is a radical manifesto--more urgent today than ever--to awaken the Christian political imagination, reminding us that our ultimate hope lies not in partisan political options but in Jesus and the incarnation of the peculiar politic of the church as a people "set apart" from this world.This collaboration between Shane Claiborne's writing and stories, Chris Haw's reflections and research, and Chico Fajardo-Heflin's 4-color art and design creates lyrical theology that poetically weaves together words and images to sing (rather than dictate) its message.This one-of-a-kind book includes:Messages drawn from biblical theologiansLessons from church historyExamples from modern-day saints and ordinary radicalsA poetic and illustrative perspective of faith This book is perfect for those who seek to follow Jesus, rediscover the spirit of the early church, and represent the kingdom of God.Jesus for President stirs the imagination of what the church could look like if it placed its faith in Jesus instead of Caesar. A fresh look at Christianity and empire, Jesus for President transcends questions of "Should I vote or not?" and "Which candidate?" by thinking creatively about the fundamental issues of faith and allegiance.
Recovering Our Sanity: How the Fear of God Conquers the Fears that Divide Us
by Michael HortonHow cultivating a healthy fear of God liberates us from our fear of others, our fear of the future, and even our fear of death itself.At times the world feels like it's losing its mind. From politics to the pandemic, we live with an ever-increasing uncertainty, and many of us have grown to fear the rapid disintegration of our society and our own lives.Recovering Our Sanity is not another self-help book about how to beat your daily fears for a better life. It's a book that will show you the gravity and glory of a God who's worthy of our fear. It&’s a book that will reveal how these two biblical phrases—Fear God and Do Not Be Afraid—are not contradictory but actually one coherent message.Michael Horton—Professor of Theology and Apologetics at Westminster Seminary—shows us that we cannot fight our fears by seeking the absence of fear altogether, but by living with a fear of God that drives out the fear of everything else. Horton will walk you through the case for the fear of God by:Developing what it means to fear God, biblically and theologically, and what this kind of fear looks like in practice.Categorizing different types of fears—from cultural anxiety to pain and hardship—and what they stem from.Focusing on how to confront our earthly fears with our hope in Christ, rooted in the gospel.Reminding us that God does not exist for us; we exist for God.Humbling, thought-provoking, and hope-igniting, Recovering Our Sanity delivers a timely message that will help you shift your focus from a human-centered obsession with self-preservation to a fixation on Christ and his salvation.Rather than clinging to false securities and promises of immediate gratification, you can gain the lasting joy of knowing the One who has given himself to save us and who says to us, "Do not be afraid."

How to Follow Jesus: A Practical Guide for Growing Your Faith
by Craig SpringerMillions of people want to follow Jesus, but don't know how. Upon becoming Christians, new believers often end up paralyzed. They become overwhelmed trying to master complicated doctrines, frustrated by a large list of rules for policing their lives, and bewildered by a new (and strange) vocabulary. Even worse, there are few books offering simple and clear advice to guide a Christian's first spiritual steps that are written in common, contemporary language. Until now.In How to Follow Jesus, Craig Springer, executive director of Alpha USA, one of America's most effective evangelism movements, explodes numerous myths surrounding the Christian faith that create unnecessary obstacles to growth, including: illustrating that sin and temptation are not the greatest threat to a flourishing faith, forgiveness means going through rather than around our feelings, and how disappointment in the church may be the essential step in growing a foundation for life-changing community. Sharing personal stories from his own journey to a mature faith, Springer sets readers at ease and offers them practical, easy-to-implement advice for following Jesus. Destined to become a timeless classic, How to Follow Jesus is a must read for new and returning Christians.
Transforming Performance Measurement: Rethinking the Way We Measure and Drive Organizational Success
by Dean SpitzerPerformance improvement thought leader Dean Spitzer explains why performance measurement should be less about calculations and analysis and more about the crucial social factors that determine how well the measurements get used.Transforming Performance Measurement presents a breakthrough approach that will not only significantly reduce those dysfunctions, but also promote alignment with business strategy, maximize cross-enterprise integration, and help everyone to work collaboratively to drive value throughout your organization. Spitzer&’s "socialization of measurement" process focuses on learning and improvement from measurement, and on the importance of asking such questions as:How well do our measures reflect our business model? How successfully are they driving our strategy? What should we be measuring and not measuring? Are the right people having the right measurement discussions? Performance measurement is a dynamic process that calls for an awareness of the balance necessary between seemingly disparate ideas: the technical and the social aspects of performance measurement. This book gives you assessment tools to gauge where you are now and a roadmap for moving, with little or no disruption, to a more "transformational" and mature measurement system.The book also provides 34 TMAPs, Transformational Measurement Action Plans, which suggest both well-accepted and "emergent" measures (in areas such as marketing, human resources, customer service, knowledge management, productivity, information technology, research and development, costing, and more) that you can use right away. Transforming Performance Measurement tells you not only what to measure, but how to do it -- and in what context -- to make a truly transformational difference in your enterprise.
Fearless and Free: How Smart Women Pivot--and Relaunch Their Careers
by Wendy SachsIn Fearless and Free, author Wendy Sachs provides pithy, invaluable guidance to women stymied in the workplace.Women tend to be inherently cautious, to the point of overthinking their every move. This may help them stay safer than their male counterparts, but it also keeps them stuck in the action-first, fake-it-til-you-make-it ethos celebrated in the tech world shaking up the workforce today.What if women embraced the startup spirit? What if they had the confidence to take chances, even if they knew they may fail first? What if instead of agonizing over which step to take, they leapt forward quickly? These are the traits that helped Silicon Valley redefine our culture, and not surprisingly, these are the same lessons that can help all women succeed in all stages of their careers.With lessons learned from a wide range of women who faced down fears, roadblocks, and failures to reinvent themselves, Sachs&’s invaluable resource teaches women how to:Boost their confidenceSell their storyCapitalize on their skills and expand themNurture their networkBrand themselves--without braggingReposition themselves for reentering the workforceBy taking the disruptive methods that helped Silicon Valley send shockwaves across industries, Fearless and Free seeks to empower women in the workforce, showing them how to lean into their strengths, increase confidence, and make their impact known loud and clear.
Random Reflections From An Everyday Sinner
by Bill ClarkRandom Reflections from an Everyday Sinner is a collection of thoughts and reflections about experiencing life from one common man&’s perspective. It speaks of interpersonal experiences in life and the struggles of incorporating belief into a pragmatic and productive world view.The collection of writings are primarily the result of encouragement from my wife, friends, and acquaintances made over a lifetime of extensive work-related travel, Church involvement and general encounters with family members and others navigating through life.&“Experience is the name everyone gives to their mistakes.&” --Oscar WildeThe writings were also therapy. After experiencing the death of parents, 50+ years of working and getting &“retired&” by a corporate takeover and experiencing other common traumas of life, I needed to slow down and readjust my perspective on life. I needed to learn how to stop just reacting and become a better contributor to my own mental health and to the lives of those I encounter.There are a handful of universal truths in these writings. You&’ll know them when you read them. But mostly, this is just a record of experience and opinion. Hopefully you&’ll read these knowing they are intended as encouragement and not as an invitation to philosophical combat. If you disagree with something written here figure out what your position looks like, so you can encourage yourself and others.&“Happy people plan actions, they don't plan results.&” --Denis WaitleyRespectfully,Bill Clark

After her mother&’s death, life wasn&’t the same for Genesis and her father, and she has grown up with little exposure to the Christian faith.This captivating novel conveys the story of Genesis&’s journey as she travels through time, reading through famous Bible stories like David and Goliath, Daniel and the lion&’s den, and even overlooked stories, like the tragedy of Masada and the writing on the wall. Genesis alternates between the world in her Bible and life in her small town as she tries to uncover the mystery of Christianity.To add to the chaos, Jace--Genesis&’s old rival--becomes a puzzling distraction when Genesis is forced to partner with him for a school project. The threat of her father&’s disapproval hangs over her head while she attempts to hide her new faith, but questions of the past start to boil to the surface. The closer Jace and Genesis become, the more Genesis begins to realize Jace may not be telling her the whole story.Through Genesis&’s eyes, the people and places in the Bible are brought to life. Worthy of Rain brings a vivid outlook to the classic Bible stories in one girl's quest to uncover the secrets of the past. Will her father's boundless desire to keep her in the shadows triumph over Genesis&’s newfound faith, or will a hidden truth get to her first? Worthy of Rain is a timeless and relatable piece designed as an open door for both the believers and the skeptics, one that will leave you turning every page until the end.
